I have this book, not mine but in my studio. If your friend Roger will al=

me, I can print some picture and someone with a normal site,(unlike mine)
could put it there.
whre is my studio, long time ago Worked Missa. She is a nephew of Hiroshi

d
pay someone to take it.
The way it was built was too big, too strong but was exhalent. I do not k=
now
